Written by Yolk, The New Chronicles is a Digimon fanfic that follows Edmund "Eddy" Banners, a foreign transfer student from the United States, who is currently living in Shibuya. Coerced by a friend of his into getting a Digivice, the next morning, Shibuya is turned into a massive desert, and the Digimon he got with the Digivice, a Labramon called Rah, emerges from the Digivice, and becomes Eddy's partner. Now, Eddy and Rah must find out what truly happened to Shibuya...
Tropes found in this work:
- Ascended Fanboy: Averted to the Nth degree with Eddy; he consideres Digimon to be more for kids, and takes the fact that he has a Digimon now himself in stride.
- Carry a Big Stick: Eddy's weapon of choice is a club taken from a Goblimon.
- Defeat Means Friendship: After defeating an Ogremon called Boss, he instantly befriends Eddy and Rah.
- Running Gag: It seems that every time someone he knows learns that he got a Digimon, they'll wonder why, since they think he hates the franchise, even though he claims otherwise.
- Shrinking Violet: Chi, Hime's Phascomon partner, is this in spades.
- Whip It Good: Hime's weapon of choice is an extendable microphone cord handled like a whip.
